Upcoming Events, Courses, and Talks

Innovation Match is a fast-paced, structured networking session designed to connect founders, researchers, and technical innovators looking to move ideas forward.

The event brings together university and lab researchers, startup founders, and entrepreneurs with emerging or “parked” IP who are exploring new venture opportunities or seeking potential co-founders. Bring an idea, a prototype, research, a patent, or simply your expertise — each timed round offers an opportunity to discover alignment, share capabilities, and spark new possibilities.

This edition highlights priority sectors including fuels and chemicals, advanced and bio-based materials, industrial manufacturing systems, advanced water treatment, electrochemical purification, carbon-negative technologies, and energy-efficient industrial processes — while remaining open to adjacent applied and deep-tech innovation.

Who Should Join

• University and lab researchers working in industrial energy, materials, manufacturing, sustainability, and related applied technologies

• Startup founders seeking research collaborators, validation partners, or pilot pathways

• Entrepreneurs and technical innovators with emerging or “parked” IP exploring commercialization or new venture opportunities

• Founders, inventors, and problem-solvers outside of the highlighted priority areas who are looking to connect, collaborate, or build something new
